Pros

They pay you 2.5% commission, and give you TONS of leads. You are not responsible for ANY marketing. You can make $40,000 or you can make $300,000. It’s up to your ability to learn the tricks of the system quickly and work as much as you can. The company is designed for its own success. NOT YOURS. Keep that in mind and you’ll do well if you are single with no kids and are driven SOLELY by money.

Cons

Hours suck. There are 12 hour days. You will be treated like an employee and micromanaged. The company is run like a car lot. Leads come in, get dispersed and then get HARD sold. Management is trained to sell you on the IDEA of the company in the same way you are trained to sell home buyers on the IDEA of LGI homes. There is a lot of dishonesty. When /if you raise attention, you are guided along to just go with the flow. The company refuses to innovate and still had an old outdated paper system that shuns technology.

Pros

Absolutely none, terrible position unless you are in a "great" community. They build in crappy places and expect people to pay top dollar.

Cons

Stay far away! For this position you will be under paid and over worked. They guarantee sales people 500 leads minimum a year. What they don't tell you is that 98% are garbage. The other 2.99% are desperate people with some of the worst credit you've ever seen. Then you have the .01% that can actually purchase a home. And they expect a minimum of 18 closings for sales people. They want to run everything like it is in Texas but news flash, all markets are different. Some need a different approach. And no one will listen to someone who's been in the local market for years. Pre crash and post crash of 08. I told them exactly what to do to make us a producing market and it fell on deaf ears. Then I was promised a promotion for doubling my team size, community count and responsibilities. Then when the time came. They said nah. Systems based company? Yea ok. What a joke. Wasted 2 years of my life here and walked away from a blossoming career I already had on the promise of big money that never came. Stay as far away as you can!!!
